CIVIC DIGITAL FELLOWSHIP

Engineering Fellows might work on a range of projects, including web scraping, web development, app development, and database tools. Fellows should be adaptable, comfortable scoping their own problem statements, and able to advocate for their project in a non-technical environment. Fellows should expect to work closely with their agency partners and develop their projects iteratively.

Data Science Fellows might work to clean large datasets, derive important insights, and communicate those insights to their agency partners. Fellows should expect a mixture of projects from data manipulation to generating data-driven reports. They should be comfortable in a highly analytical environment but also able to communicate their work to non-technical stakeholders.

Product Fellows will have the opportunity to help develop a pre-existing or new product for their host agency. Fellows should be comfortable navigating ambiguity and bureaucracy, coordinating between multiple stakeholders, and empathizing with users. Fellows should expect to ship a minimum viable product by the end of the summer.

Design Fellows will have the opportunity to work within several different disciplines depending on the need of their host agency, including graphic design, branding, UX, and product design. Fellows should expect to work on a mix of projects, including those with established branding and design guidelines and those still developing that require their own systems. Fellows will work closely with their agency partners and incorporate feedback in a constant iterative process.
